dear lazywebs, just for you
the first lines of the first public entry each month:
january - back in boston.
february - why the FUCK is the only recording of 'paint it black' i appear to have by the london symphony orchestra?
march - there's a gazillion other things i've been too busy to post, but this is just ridiculous: last week i received a 'guide to commencement 2006' in the mail, which amused and frightened me.
april - look, i did this thing! ['this thing' being 'getting my nose pierced']
may - walking home from pika just now, i noticed several things:
- it's may
- it's raining (oh, boston. luckily, not too cold for my hoodie :)
- it's dark outside, and has been for some hours
- someone in cambridgeport has their lawn sprinklers on.
june - found today, while cleaning/moving the lab: one (1) floppy diskette, originally labelled 'borland c++ 4.0, disk 8 of 22'
july - stupid asshat(s) of the day award goes to the customer service (or perhaps the sales dept.) for coherent, a company that makes some of our laser stuff, for making me fill out a basic personal information form before i could *download a user manual* for a wavelength meter i'm trying to use.
august - i appear to've convinced myself rather thoroughly that i shouldn't be doing much with my time except working and studying.
september - i am, admittedly, killing time until a group talk in 20 minutes.
october - i need to be more informed.
november - i just logged into my gmail account for the first time in, oh, forever (i appear to've gotten the thing in 2004, probably from izzycat), b/c it occurs to me that eventually i won't have my @mit.edu addresses.
december - normally i don't give a flying fuck about people and their surveys, but this one isn't for 15.301 or whatever it is.
in other news, cat macros continue to be fantastic. when i am king, every day shall be caturday.
qotd: that's not a dildo, that's a melee combat weapon! (yes, they were talking about thor, but it was still an awesome reaction.)
